以色列与犹大家谱的原始记录册

1. 以色列众人都按家谱计算——自希伯来民族立国之初,便存有公开的记录,登记每一个人的名字,以及他所归属的支派与家族。「以色列和犹大诸王记」并非指圣经中以此名称为人所知的那两卷正典书卷,而是指那些受君王官方保管、经核验无误的记录副本;由于大量以色列人

(1Ch 9:3)

在撒缦以色(Shalmaneser)入侵期间逃入犹大避难,便将这些公开记录一并带来。前数章所载的家谱,系取自以色列与犹大双方档案库中的公开记录;而本章所载的,则属归回之后的时期;由此可见

(参

1Ch 3:17-24),

在被掳于巴比伦期间,家谱记录仍得以保存。因此,这些家谱表在真实性与准确性上具有最高的权威,其前半部分系摘自经核验的国族记录;至于属被掳时期的那部分,则由一位当代作者所编纂,他不仅享有最完备的资料来源,秉性极其正直,更蒙神圣的默示所引导与保守,免于一切错误。

ORIGINAL REGISTERS OF ISRAEL AND JUDAH'S GENEALOGIES.

1. all Israel were reckoned by genealogies--From the beginning of the Hebrew nation, public records were kept, containing a registration of the name of every individual, as well as the tribe and family to which he belonged. "The book of the kings of Israel and Judah" does not refer to the two canonical books that are known in Scripture by that name, but to authenticated copies of those registers, placed under the official care of the sovereigns; and as a great number of the Israelites

(1Ch 9:3)

took refuge in Judah during the invasion of Shalmaneser, they carried the public records along with them. The genealogies given in the preceding chapters were drawn from the public records in the archives both of Israel and Judah; and those given in this chapter relate to the period subsequent to the restoration; whence it appears (compare

1Ch 3:17-24)

that the genealogical registers were kept during the captivity in Babylon. These genealogical tables, then, are of the highest authority for truth and correctness, the earlier portion being extracted from the authenticated records of the nation; and as to those which belong to the time of the captivity, they were drawn up by a contemporary writer, who, besides enjoying the best sources of information, and being of the strictest integrity, was guided and preserved from all error by divine inspiration.

2. 最先住在自己产业上的居民——本章所述全是最初被掳归回的人。这些名字几乎全都重现于《尼希米记》

(Ne 11:1-36),

虽有若干差异,将在那里加以说明。百姓在被掳前后同样分为四类:祭司、利未人、本地人(此时统称为以色列人),以及尼提宁人

(Jos 9:27; Ezr 2:43; 8:20)。

当历史学家说到「最先住在自己产业上的居民」时,他暗示后来还有其他人归回,定居在初归者所未占据的产业上。因此我们读到,后来有大批人在以斯拉、尼希米率领下,以及更晚的时期相继归回。而有些回到先祖古时产业的人,在被掳之前便已生活在那里

(Ezr 3:12; Hag 2:4, 10)。

2. the first inhabitants that dwelt in their possessions--This chapter relates wholly to the first returned exiles. Almost all the names recur in Nehemiah

(Ne 11:1-36),

although there are differences which will be explained there. The same division of the people into four classes was continued after, as before the captivity; namely, the priests, Levites, natives, who now were called by the common name of Israelites, and the Nethinims

(Jos 9:27; Ezr 2:43; 8:20).

When the historian speaks of "the first inhabitants that dwelt in their possessions," he implies that there were others who afterwards returned and settled in possessions not occupied by the first. Accordingly, we read of a great number returning successively under Ezra, Nehemiah, and at a later period. And some of those who returned to the ancient inheritance of their fathers, had lived before the time of the captivity

(Ezr 3:12; Hag 2:4, 10).

18. 王门——王有从其宫殿通往圣殿的门

(2Ki 16:18),

无疑常年关闭,仅供君王使用;虽然被掳归回后以色列中没有王,但旧日的礼仪仍然保持,大概期盼权杖将早日恢复于大卫之家。东方君王之所以与众不同,正是在于设有一道专为己用的门,常年关闭,只有他出入时才打开

(Eze 44:2)。

当时以色列既无王,此门便始终关闭。

18. the king's gate--The king had a gate from his palace into the temple

(2Ki 16:18),

which doubtless was kept constantly closed except for the monarch's use; and although there was no king in Israel on the return from the captivity, yet the old ceremonial was kept up, probably in the hope that the scepter would, ere long, be restored to the house of David. It is an honor by which Eastern kings are distinguished, to have a gate exclusively devoted to their own special use, and which is kept constantly closed, except when he goes out or returns

(Eze 44:2).

There being no king then in Israel, this gate would be always shut.
